The news that Warden Stordock
would have an examination before
Judge Nethaway yesterday morning
created much excitement throughout
Saltwater, and at the hour appointed
for the hearing, 9 O'Clock. the court
room was comfortably filled with a
mixed crowd of spectators, While the
officers of the court and many news
paper reporters occupied seats near the
Judges stand. After the charge OF
criminal libel had been read, Mr.. Stor.
docks attorney responded Not guilty"
Upon Mr.. SearleS' request and the ac-
0uieSence of Mr.. Marsh, Judge Netha-
way adjourned the case to . O'Clock
"Wednesday, Nov. 10, and upon his own
recognizapce Warden StordOck was al
lowed to go his way under bonds i'll the
sum of $500. Immediately after his case
had been temporarily disposed CT, the
charge of SubOrnatiOn of perjury was
brought up, and to this charge the
answer of Not guilty was filed and
the warden. after being placed under
bonds of $500, which were signed by +.
5. Brown and T. II. Lemon, was al
lowed to 90 his way. and stepping into
a carriage that was in waiting at the
door he was driven TO his Office at the
prison. Mrs McNeal, the prison matron,
is made correspondent. Later on Warden
StordOck was seen. He said:
As to the outcome of this matter, nave
not the least fear, as know there Is not the
slightest foundation for either charge, but
rather think il possible that l may be indicted
by the grand jury on one or both charges, be
cause Marsh has had himself appointed
deputy county attorney for tAe occasion, ana
that as he relies on Harriet Burner as wit
ness. his peculiar talent with the resources
of his partner, Burner, could perhaps have
settled the matter that was tried before PLATE
in much less time than it took to convict our
Savior. Why Mr.. Marsh should feel ana act
as spitefully and reVengefully as he does
towards me is one of the cOnundrumS that l
hone to solve in the future. 1 have hereto
fore kept out of the newspapers, but nave
been compelled in self defense is give my
GLOBE, but hope that l shall not have to
take up the valuable space OF the papers
again. 1t has now. apparently, got into the
courts and will be settled there.
